Countdown To Christmas: 3 Days aka Sweater Nails

Today I bring you some snazzy Christmas Sweater nails. I wanted to do these other sweater nails that had a stag print to them, but I needed to do these before we were going to head to the dude's family gathering. Well, I rushed to get these done, but, he ended up quite ill, so we did not end up going. I could have done the other nails. BUT! I like these guys. They are based off of THIS PHOTO, but I had to change it up and add some gold.. anything to make them have more activity, really.

I used:

China Glaze White on White

OPI Coca-Cola Red

butter London British Racing Green

OPI My Favorite Ornament

Little brush

Dotting tool

That is all for today. I realize my lines are a little wonky here, but you get the general idea behind these nails.. right?!

I just realized I still have a couple post photos stocked up. Sigh. I haven't even uploaded all that is currently living on my camera. The fear is real.

That is for another day. Mayhaps this weekend.

Until then.

I think I said it at some point on my blog, but I feel like 2017 is going to be the year that I constantly do faux marble nails. Note: not watermarbling. I have given in to that failed activity far too many times.

No, I mean the classy kind of marble. You know.

This time, I did it in reverse, because, why not?

It counts, right?

Ugh. I love it.

All right, that is all for today. See you all again soon (I promise).

My sole mission was to make the wounds look as gnarly and gooey as possible (when I sent my sister some behind the scenes photos, she liked the original look.. but I literally told her I opted to make them 'gooier' - legit scientific term)

Anytime I can destroy my polished nails to make wounds is a great day to me!
